www.cyclenews.com Glen Helen Pre-Race Notes: Good afternoon, Happy Mothers Day, and welcome to Cycle News Virtual Grandstand for our live, lap-by-lap coverage of the 7th Annual GiantRVRacing.com 125/250 National Motocross, which of course is Round #1 of the 2002 AMA / Chevy Trucks U.S. Motocross Championships, from Glen Helen Raceway Park in San Bernardino, California. 9:15am - 125 Pro Practice is happening right now, the Pro Heat races (short motos just to get into the show) will be underway around 11:45am, currently the weather is 55 degrees F and clear, temperatures are expected to reach the high 80s by this afternoon. We'll go over some of the happenings & latest updates this morning...be sure to tune in at 1pm PST as the gate drops for the first 125 Pro Moto for our live coverage. Injury Report: (special thanks to TFS' Steve Bruhn) Racing Today: Travis Pastrana, Robbie Reynard, Michael Byrne (rode the 125 class at Vegas already), Rodrig Thain, Steve Lamson, Guy Cooper (running #540 number plate on a KTM 540), Tim Ferry, Heath Voss, Grant Langston (just renewed his contract with KTM for 2 more years after entertaining an offer to ride for factory Suzuki in '03), Michael Brandes, Casey Johnson, David Pingree (one race privateer KTM deal, maybe more). Not Racing Today: Billy Laninovich, Shae Bentley, Ben Riddle, LaRocco (tried to practice on Thursday, couldn't run at race pace for a long period of time, too much swelling on his injured wrist), Kevin Windham (still out until Mt. Morris or after), Nick Wey (aggravated previous knee injury), Nate Ramsey (concussion from Saturday qualifying crash). In Saturday's 4-Lap 125 Qualifying race, James "Bubba" Stewart and Chad Reed provided a glimpse of what to expect in today's Pro motos. After passing Chris Wheeler, the two up-and-coming starts went at it tooth & nail the whole race, each having his own better section of the course, with Bubba taking the win just ahead of Reed. The best 125cc lap times recorded by the AMA officials in Saturday's practice were: Stewart: 2:58.038; Reed: 2:59.157; Langston: 3:01.479; Sorby: 3:01.648; Bonds: 3:02.002; Thain: 3:02.394; Tedesco: 3:02.804; Preston: 3:02.911; Sellards: 3:03.200. On Thursday's press/practice day, Stewart was reported to have turned a lap in the 2:34 range, close to best 250cc times. Ricky Carmichael appears to have posted the fastest 250cc Saturday lap time, in the high 2:53s. Tortelli and Pastrana were reported to be very fast as well; today will be Pastrana's first race since being out after Daytona due to surgery to have his tonsils removed and to have his sinuses ported. The much-rumored 250cc Honda 4-stroke is still just that - so far. Some were expecting to see Ernesto Fonseca debut the works bike here at Glen Helen, but the likeable Costa Rican is running a CR125 out of the factory Honda rig - and looking extremely fast. Like many of the top riders, no official practice times are available on the Fonz, since he didn't have to ride the qualifying heats. The top 10 riders at each round (in this case, the top 10 in points from the 2001 series) are not required to ride the qualifiers, and are seeded directly into the 2 main motos for Sunday. The same goes for any former National Champions, such as Guy Cooper. The 11th through 20th riders in points ride the Sunday morning qualifiers, and those who are lower than 20th in points rode the qualifiers that were held on Saturday. Looking back: Previous 250cc National MX winners here at Glen Helen include Tim Ferry (2001), Ricky Carmichael (2000), Sebastien Tortelli (1999), Michael Pichon (1998), Jeff Emig (1997), Jeremy McGrath (1996), and Mike LaRocco (1993). Previous 125cc National MX winners at Glen Helen include Grant Langston (2001), Stephane Roncada (2000), Ricky Carmichael (1999, '98, '97), Kevin Windham (1996), and Doug Henry (1993).
